Interesting quote I heard last week, from Stephen Fleming, successful VC and now Vice Provost of Georgia Tech. It was something like, "I've never seen a married founder bootstrap a company to a large exit and had the marriage survive."
- skmurphy 17y agoI think it depends upon what value of large. One counter-example: Greg Gianforte bootstrapped RightNow technologies to 100M in revenue, still runs the company, and is still married. Two others would be Bill Hewlett and David Packard.
- rjurney 17y agoIts not that there aren't outliers. Its that bootstrapped divorce is very common - maybe more common than not.
